The Core Fighter II features several improvements over the original Core Fighter. First, it has a more streamlined and aerodynamic design, which helps to offset that it is both longer and heavier than the original. A second noted improvement is that unlike with the original Core Fighter the Core Fighter II is equipped with the RX-78GP01's beam saber, that are mounted under the wings in flight mode. These beam sabers double as beam guns for the Core Fighter II giving it a powerful ranged attack, arguably more powerful than any fighter craft short of the [[FF-X7-Bst Core Booster]]. Core Fighter II's thrusters also function as GP01's thrusters instead of being deadweight like the original Core Fighter.

In the year UC 0083 there were two '''FF-XII Core Fighter II''' units in existence. Both units were part of the [[Albion (MSC-07)|Albion's]] mobile weapon complement, the first unit serving as the cockpit for the [[RX-78GP01 Gundam "Zephyranthes"]] as it was designed to. The second unit was a spare for the first that was used as a scout craft.

After the theft of the [[RX-78GP02A Gundam "Physalis"]] the Albion pursued it to Africa where [[Kou Uraki]] would fly numerous scouting missions in the Core Fighter II in search of any sign of Zeon presence. When it was discovered that [[Anaheim Electronics]] worker [[Nick Orville]] was a Zeon Agent the man escaped by stealing the spare Core Fighter II. The captain of the Albion, [[Eiphar Synapse]], allowed Orville to get some distance before sending a team to follow him, believing that the panicking man would lead them to the Zeon. The plan worked in that they found Zeon soldiers, however those soldiers had led Orville astray in order to sacrifice him, for his stupidity, and themselves if that was what it took to but enough time for the stolen Gundam to get to space. When they shot down Orville they destroyed the Core Fighter II he was piloting, leaving only the original that was within the Zephyranthes.

When the Albion went into space and docked at the Anaheim Electronics facility at [[Von Braun]] city on the moon, the [[RX-78GP01 Gundam "Zephyranthes"]] received an upgrade into the [[RX-78GP01-Fb Gundam Full Vernian "Zephyranthes"]] which included upgrading the FF-XII Core Fighter II into the [[FF-XII-Fb Full Burnern Core Fighter II]].
